Question

You administer a GitHub Enterprise Cloud account with 500 purchased licenses. Finance reports that your monthly invoice shows more consumed seats than you expected, and they ask you to verify exactly how many licenses are being used and by whom before the next billing cycle. As the enterprise owner, what is the most reliable way to determine current license consumption across all your organizations?

Accepted Answer

View the enterprise account's license usage in the Enterprise Licensing settings, which shows consumed user licenses and lets you download a CSV of consumed license details across all organizations

Answer

Add up the member counts shown on each individual organization's People page, since every organization member consumes one separate license

Answer

Open a support bundle from the enterprise settings and inspect the billing logs it contains for a per-user license breakdown

Answer

Check the number of active SAML SSO sessions in the audit log, since only users who authenticate in a billing period consume a license
